In many image retrieval applications, the mapping between highlevel semantic concept and low-level features is obtained through a learning process. Traditional approaches often as...
Inferring 3D body pose as well as viewpoint from a single silhouette image is a challenging problem. We present a new generative model to represent shape deformations according to...
Distance measures, along with shape features, are the most critical components in a shape-based 3D model retrieval system. Given a shape feature, an optimal distance measure will v...

Credit scoring is a method of modelling potential risk of credit applications. Traditionally, logistic regression, linear regression and discriminant analysis are the most popular...
We introduce quadratically gated mixture of experts (QGME), a statistical model for multi-class nonlinear classification. The QGME is formulated in the setting of incomplete data,...
